Too many people think that global warming is not a threat, but I think it is one of the biggest problems. Our world has been greatly affected by climate change and its critical that people, young and old, work together to fight it. How are children supposed to fight global warming if they grow up not knowing about its dangers? Children should be taught ways they can help in primary school, which is why it is critical that more schools offer environmental education classes.

I think the nation should require schools to have a class about being “green”——Green Living could be its name. Every school should teach students about global warming, its effect, and what they can do to reduce their carbon footprints.

In the classes, students could be assigned(安排)to find solutions to everyday energy problems, while learning about their influence on the earth and how we all can help. Students will probably use what they have learned in class at home, where it will affect the whole family.

However, to be effective, schools must take steps to be “green” too. What would children be learning if the school’s lights were always left on and there were no recycling dustbins? When schools are renovated(修缮) or new ones are built, towns should support an eco-friendly design that would save energy and reduce power bills.

Green living and green schools are part of a new wave that should be sweeping the nation, but is not. How will our future leaders respond after years of living in a community where preserving our world’s natural integrity(完整性) just isn’t considered important? Schools and the government should be responsible for teaching young people about global warming quickly.

2. According to the passage, in order to make schools “green”, _______

A. schools should be enlarged

3. The author is eager to tell the readers that_______

A. more money should be provided to equip the school with recycling dustbins.

B. we should take action to prevent global warming before it is too late

C. government should close more polluted factories

D. we should avoid a new sandstorm sweeping the nation

4. The underlined part “our future leaders” in the last paragraph refers to______

Kids have their own ideas about money-----some are sensible and others are not so wise.

Twelve-year-old Amanda thinks it’s good to save and not blow your money right away “ so you can buy other things”.

When it comes to credit cards, eight-year-old Jeremie says when the monthly bills comes in “you sign it and then you give it back”----Leaving out the part about actually paying it..

These kids are still far away from the working world, but the ideas they’re forming about money could affect how much they save, how they use credit cards and how much debt they finally take on in later life.

High school business teacher Jeff Balch said his students had little knowledge about money other than spending. “They don’t know most things because nobody talks to them about them-----as in their parents,” said Balch,” The discussions tend to be in terms of kids spending too much money, but no one tells them why, where their money goes.”

Mitch Murphy said students’ message to the task force was to “make it real”. “It may be difficult to have a 14- or 15-year-old student get too enthusiastic about retirement planning,”Murphy said, “But if you want to talk about a cellphone contact or a debt card and how they work, they will be engaged in.”Murphy said learning financial literacy early, well before getting into the workforce, should stay with Canadians for life and benefit the country as a result.

Sandra Martin said children could start learning about money when they learn to count. “Sit down with the flyers and look at how much things cost,” Martin said. Babysitting and birthday money could be deposited and there would be a limit as to how much could be debited every month, she said.

\”The reality is that we’re not spending with cash anymore. If you’re always in control of your child’s money, then they’re never going to learn what it means to save for something that’s important.”

Balch said he tried to make his students realize the differences between needs, wants and priorities. If they haven’t learned self-control and if they haven’t learned how to handle money, they can easily spiral out of control.

1.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that______

A, money has special meaning for kids’

B. some kids like money while others don’t like it

C. some kids don’t know how to spend money wisely

D. some kids are wise enough to make money

2. According to Jeff Balch, his students paid attention to ______

A. finding how much many things were

B, finding where their money went

C. learning about why they spent money

D. spending a lot of money carelessly

3. In the opinion of Murphy, teaching kids financial knowledge should be ______

A. related to kids’ life

B. connected with kids’ future

C. done after they get into workforce

D. worried about as late as possible

4. In the opinion of Martin, teens needed to ______

A. save every penny they get every month

B, learn how to save for something important

C.spend with cash rather than credit card

D. set a limit to spending money every day

5.The main idea of the passage is that ______

A. kids save money for their own special things

B, kids develop good financial habits for family

C. kids need to learn about money for later life

D. kids can’t control themselves in spending money.

Taking part-time job is very popular among American students and usually begins during their high school years.

A very popular job for teenage girls in America is babysitting(当临时保姆). Babysitting is not an easy job. A good babysitter should know how to change diapers(尿布). She must be able to get the baby ready for bed on time. In addition, she should be able to solve any unexpected emergency(突发事件) and she should always remember the emergency numbers of the hospital and the police and also the phone numbers of the baby’s parents so that she can call them when an emergency happens. Once the baby is asleep, the babysitter is free to watch TV or listen to music. But she should be careful not to wake the baby up. It is always the best choice to spend the time doing her homework.

Compared with teenage girls, boys usually have more choices because of their strong bodies. But to most of them, delivering newspapers is very appealing because they can make quite a bit of money by doing this job even though they have to get up early in the morning. This job has no holidays because the newspapers have to be delivered every day.

In America, part-time jobs for high school students are often considered as an opportunity to teach young people to have a strong sense of responsibility(责任) and show respect for others. They can also learn how to become part of the adult world.

1.Which of the following responsibilities of a babysitter is NOT mentioned in the passage?

A.Changing diapers.

B.Giving a bath to the baby.

C.Making sure the baby goes to bed on time.

D.Keeping the phone numbers of the baby’s parents in mind.

2.What is the best thing for the babysitter to do if the baby is asleep?

A.Watching TV or listening to music quietly.

B.Going shopping.

C.Doing her homework.

D.Cleaning the rooms.

3.The underlined sentence most probably means that________

A.most teenage boys are interested in delivering newspapers.

B.Most teenage boys think delivering newspapers is very hard.

C.Most teenage boys don’t like delivering newspapers.

D.Most teenage boys can only deliver newspapers.

4.The last paragraph is mainly about______

A.where high school students can get part-time jobs.

B.how to become part of the adult world.

C.the advantages(优点) of taking part-time jobs.

D.the importance of respecting others.

In yesterday’s programs, we talked about children’s behavior. Today, we’ll continue with this topic.

Last night, my daughters and I went to a department store. There was a little boy crying loudly. My younger daughter said, “I believe his mother is going to tell him to stop because there are many people that don’t want to hear the noise!”However, his mom didn’t do it, much to the annoyance(恼怒) of everyone else in the store. You know what? Even though I loved kids so much, I disliked that boy greatly!

Sometimes, it’s fine to let kids get a little crazy, buy not in public. They should be always taught how to behave in restaurants or other public places. If we don’t teach them, our kids may think that it is OK for them to destroy the peace, as the crying child in the department store did. Then they will easily develop into inconsiderate people who never think of how other people feel. And then who will like them? Who will want to spend time with them? I guess only their parents will.

We teach our children not to steal, tell lies or fight. Shouldn’t we also teach them to respect others? Their bad behavior in public is something no one really wants to see, especially strangers.

Well, this is all we have today. Just remember: kids need to learn good manners. They will go farther in life if we teach them well. Thanks for listening. See you tomorrow!

1.The intended readers of the passage are_____

A.people who need to be careful with their behavior in public.

B.children who don’t behave well in public

C.parents who need to teach their kids to behave well in public

D.parents whose public behavior is not good

2.The underlined word “inconsiderate” means______

A. often making mistakes

B. not caring about other people’s feelings

C. not wanting to help others

D. easy to get angry

3. According to the writer, teaching children to behave well in public is to______

A. make sure of their success in the future

B, show the good family education they’ve received

C. make them feel good about themselves

D. teach them to show respect for other people

4. The passage is most probably taken from____

A. a radio program

B. a news report

C. an advertisement

D. a travel magazine

A ★ For years, he had difficulty saving to buy a house because something would always happen and use more money. Although he made efforts, he simply could not go long before spending the extra money that he had saved. Then one day a car accident badly damaged the car his wife was driving. The repairs might cost them five thousand dollars. Unfortunately, they were now in debt (债务) and so the car would have to wait. He realized that they needed a solution to their money problems. He worked long and hard for weeks, saving and managing his money in a way he had never done before. In a few months he had saved enough money to have his wife’s car repaired. Once the car was repaired, he discussed with his wife how quickly they had put aside the money they needed. During their discussion his wife encouraged him to open a second account (账户) so they could continue to put away the same amount of money that they were saving every week for the car repair. This money would go towards the house they had always wanted to buy. In a little over a year he saved more than twenty thousand dollars and was able to make the down payment (首付款). He did something in a short while that he had failed to achieve in his previous attempts. This man’s experiences gave him a different feeling about money. He and his wife have continued to keep their second account. This time they have decided to start saving for their retirement, putting away just a little less every week than they did for their house. One man developed a new set of good qualities because he had a goal that was important for him to achieve — he made a plan to achieve it and followed through. The experience of a single bad luck taught him a valuable lesson and challenged him to plan his saving, and spending habits again. In the process he also changed his

高考英语阅读理解专题训练精品题（5） Passage Fifteen (Contribution of Coeducation) Imagining being asked to spend twelve or so years of your life in a society which consisted only of members of own sex. How would you react? Unless there was something definitely wrong with y ou, you wouldn’t be too happy about it, to say the least. It is all the more surprising therefore that so many parents in the world choose to impose such abnormal conditions on their children –conditions which they themselves wouldn’t put up with for one minute! Any discussion of this topic is bound to question the aims of education. Stuffing children’s heads full of knowledge is far from being foremost among them. One of the chief aims of educations is to equip future citizens with all they require to take their place in adult society. Now adult society is made up of men and women, so how can a segregated school possibly offer the right sort of preparation for it? Anyone entering adult society after years of segregation can only be in for a shock. A co-educational school offers children nothing less than a true version of society in miniature. Boys and girls are given the opportunity to get to know each other, to learn to live together from their earliest years. They are put in a position where they can compare themselves with each other in terms of academic ability, athletic achievement and many of the extra-curricular activities which are part of school life. What a practical advantage it is ( to give just a small example ) to be able to put on a school play in which the male parts will be taken by boys and the female parts by girls! What nonsense co-education makes of the argument that boys are cleverer than girl or vice-versa. When segregated, boys and girls are made to feel that they are a race apart. Rivalry between the sexes is fostered. In a coeducational school, everything falls into its proper place. But perhaps the greatest contribution of co-education is the healthy attitude to life it encourages. Boys don’t grow up believing that women are mysteri ous creatures –airy goddesses, more like book-illustrations to a fairy-tale, than human beings. Girls don’t grow up imagining that men are romantic heroes. Years of living together at

You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person. 21．When you do something wrong, _______________. A. you may correct it

(完整版)高中英语阅读训练习题及答案

A (words:311&225) The British National Health Service (NHS) was set up in 1948 and was designed to provide equal basic health care, free of charge, for everybody in the country. Before this time health care had to be paid for by individuals. Nowadays central government is directly responsible for the NHS although it is administered by local health authorities. About 83 percent of the cost of the health service is paid for by general taxation and the rest is met from the National Insurance contributions paid by those in work. There are charges for prescription and dental care but many people, such as children, pregnant women, pensioners, and those on Income Support, are exempt from payment. Most people are registered with a local doctor (a GP, or General Practitioner) who is increasingly likely to be part of a health centre which serves the community. As the population of Britain gets older, the hospital service now treats more patients than before, although patients spend less time in hospital. NHS hospitals—many of which were built in the nineteenth century — provide nearly half a million beds and have over 480, 000 medical staff. The NHS is the biggest employer in Europe although Britain actually spends less per person on health care than most of her European neighbours. During the 1980s there was considerable restructuring of the Health Service with an increased emphasis on managerial efficiency and the privatization of some services (for example, cleaning). At the end of the 1980s the government introduced proposals for further reform of the NHS, including allowing some hospitals to be self-governing, and encouraging GPs to compete for patients. Patients would be able to choose and change their family doctor more easily and GPs would have more financial responsibility. The political questions continue of how much money should be provided to support the NHS and where it should come from. 41. We can know from the first paragraph that ______________. A. the original aim of the NHS was to provide equal basic health care for everybody B. people didn’t have to pay for health care since the NHS was set up C. patients were charged for receiving health care before 1948 D. the NHS was an organization which gave free advice to villagers 42. What do we know about the NHS? A. It’s managed by the central government.
